Mystery

[dragonydreams]

Yesterday when I got home from work I had an envelope from Best Buy. Inside was a generic gift card. I only know what the amount is ($20) because it was on the packing slip. No where does it say who it is from or who it was billed to.

I assumed it was from my dad, because he sent me an online gift certificate for a website that has printer supplies (save $5 on a $50 order - WTF? I still have to pay $45! What kind of gift is that?). Turns out, they don't have supplies for Dell printers, which is what I have. This is why I give him a wish list of the stores I want gift certificate for!!!!! Best Buy was on that list. But it wasn't from him.

My next thought was that it might be from my brother, since he knows I shop there. It also says that the postage was paid for in Minneapolis, where he lives (okay, next to where he lives). But I'm IMing with him now and he said it's not from him. In fact, he asked if he should mail my present or wait and give it to me when I see him at the end of January. I told him to mail it.

So now I have a lovely gift certificate and no one to thank!

Congrats on the gift certificate and I hope you find out who it is from. When was the last time you were in MN? Who do you know there? Secret admirer?

midnight :)

I was in MN for my grandmother's funeral. Aside from my brother's soon-to-be-ex-roommate (long story), I don't really know anyone there. I doubt it was from any of the distant relatives who live there. MN could have just been where it was shipped from.

A secret admirer is a fun idea. Although I've never been good with the suspense.
